What is an EWP ticket?
EWP Ticket training (unit RIIHAN301E: Conduct elevating work platform operations) covers the safe operation of scissor lifts and similar elevating work platforms under 11m, combining classroom theory with hands-on practical instruction.
Why It's Required
Operating an elevated work platform without a valid ticket is illegal in Australian workplaces. The course ensures operators understand safe operating procedures, pre-operational checks, and emergency procedures.

Once issued, your EWP ticket is valid for 5 years and recognised for elevated work platform operation across all Australian states and territories.
